Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0027975, filed on Mar. 5, 2020, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
BACKGROUND
1. Field
[0002] One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a condensed cyclic compound and an organic light-emitting device including the same.
2. Description of Related Art
[0003] Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are self-emission devices that, as compared with existing devices, have wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, short response times, and excellent characteristics in terms of brightness, driving voltage, and response speed, and produce full-color images.
[0004] OLEDs may include a first electrode on a substrate, and a hole transport region, an emission layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode sequentially stacked on the first electrode. Holes provided from the first electrode may move toward the emission layer through the hole transport region, and electrons provided from the second electrode may move toward the emission layer through the electron transport region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons transit (e.g., transition or relax) from an excited state to a ground state to thereby generate light.
SUMMARY
[0005] One or more embodiments include a condensed cyclic compound having a novel structure and an organic light-emitting device including the same.
[0006] Additional aspects of embodiments will be set forth in part in the description which follows and, in part, will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the presented embodiments of the disclosure.

[0108] The condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 is capable of reverse intersystem crossing from a triplet excited state to a singlet excited state through thermal activity even at room temperature, resulting in delayed fluorescence. Because excitons in the triplet state are used for emission, luminescence efficiency may be improved.
[0109] In one embodiment, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may satisfy the following Equation 1:
.DELTA.E.sub.ST=S1-T1.ltoreq.0.3 eV. Equation 1
[0110] S1 is the singlet energy level of the condensed cyclic compound, and
[0111] T1 is the triplet energy level of the condensed cyclic compound.
[0112] Because the condensed cyclic compound according to an embodiment includes the condensed cyclic structure represented by Formula 1, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) are separated by multiple resonances between an N atom and a B atom to obtain a thermally active delayed fluorescent (TADF) characteristic. In addition, because the condensed cyclic compound has a rigid skeleton in which a plurality of condensed cyclic group moieties, including boron atoms, share a benzene ring and are condensed, the structural change before and after the transition is small, thereby improving stability.
[0113] The condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 includes two boron atoms in one molecule, thereby amplifying the multiple resonance effect and providing higher absorbance and luminescence efficiency.
[0114] In addition, as the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 includes two B atoms, two Al atoms, or two Ga atoms on both sides centering around a pyridine group, the resonance effect by non-covalent electrons of the pyridine group increases, so that, as compared to the existing case where the carbon atom or the phenyl group is included in the center, the multiple resonance effect is increased (or maximized), thereby resulting in a large oscillator strength and a small value of .DELTA.E.sub.ST. Consequently, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may have high efficiency and long lifespan effects.
[0115] In addition, as the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 includes a B atom, an Al atom, or a Ga atom at the center of the condensed ring, the oscillator strength is increased (or maximized) through a short range charge transfer phenomenon in which the separation of the HOMO and the LUMO divided among crossed atoms is further increased. Also, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 has a wide plate-like structure as the molecular plane is condensed widely (e.g., the rings are combined together to form a wide molecular structure), so that the stability is improved, thereby providing a long lifespan effect.
[0116] Synthesis methods of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may be recognizable by one of ordinary skill in the art by referring to Examples provided below.
[0117] At least one of the condensed cyclic compounds represented by Formula 1 may be used between a pair of electrodes of an organic light-emitting device. For example, the condensed cyclic compounds may be included in at least one selected from a hole transport region, an electron transport region, and an emission layer. In one or more embodiments, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may be used as a material for a capping layer located outside the pair of electrodes of an organic light-emitting device.
[0118] According to another aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an organic light-emitting device including: a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; an organic layer located between the first electrode and the second electrode and including an emission layer; and at least one condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1.
[0119] In one embodiment, the organic layer of the organic light-emitting device may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1.
[0120] In one embodiment, the first electrode may be an anode,
[0121] the second electrode may be a cathode,
[0122] the organic layer may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1,
[0123] the organic layer may further include a hole transport region between the first electrode and the emission layer and an electron transport region between the emission layer and the second electrode,
[0124] the hole transport region may include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an emission auxiliary layer, an electron blocking layer, or any combination thereof, and
[0125] the electron transport region may include a buffer layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, or any combination thereof.
[0126] In one embodiment, the emission layer of the organic light-emitting device may include the condensed cyclic compound. For example, the condensed cyclic compound included in the emission layer is a delayed fluorescence emitter, and the emission layer may emit delayed fluorescence.
[0127] In one embodiment, the emission layer may further include a host, the condensed cyclic compound included in the emission layer is a dopant, and the amount of the host included in the emission layer may be greater than the amount of the condensed cyclic compound included in the emission layer. For example, the amount of the condensed cyclic compound may be from about 0.01 parts by weight to amount 49.99 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the emission layer.
[0128] For example, the host included in the emission layer may include an anthracene-containing compound, a carbazole-containing compound, a benzimidazole-containing compound, a phosphine oxide-containing compound, an arylamine compound, a styrylamine compound, or a combination thereof.
[0129] In one embodiment, the emission layer of the organic light-emitting device includes the condensed cyclic compound, and the emission layer may emit light having a maximum emission wavelength of about 420 nm or more and about 480 nm or less.
[0130] In one embodiment, the emission layer may be a first color light emission layer,
[0131] the organic light-emitting device may further include i) at least one second emission layer to emit a second color light or ii) at least one second emission layer to emit the second color light and at least one third emission layer to emit a third color light, between the first electrode and the second electrode,
[0132] the maximum emission wavelength of the first color light, the maximum emission wavelength of the second color light, and the maximum emission wavelength of the third color light may be identical to or different from each other, and
[0133] the first color light and the second color light may be emitted in the form of mixed light, or the first color light, the second color light, and the third color light may be emitted in the form of mixed light.
[0134] According to another aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electronic apparatus including the organic light-emitting device and a thin-film transistor, wherein the first electrode of the organic light-emitting device electrically contacts one of the source electrode and drain electrode of the thin-film transistor.
[0135] The term "an organic layer," as used herein, refers to a single layer and/or a plurality of layers located between the first electrode and the second electrode of an organic light-emitting device. A material included in the "organic layer" is not limited to an organic material. For example, the organic layer may include an inorganic material.
